Nokia Lumia 800 Review
The Nokia Lumia 800 was introduced at the recent Nokia World by Stephen Elop (Nokia's CEO) who said "it's the first real Windows Phone". It's a bold statement, but it's true that in the past, Windows Phone have often inherited from designs that were not the very best handset makers could offer.

Windows Phone has been sort of a ship without a port for a while now, getting along as a platform without a must-have, lightning-rod handset. Nokia's Lumia 800 is the first serious contender for that honor, but Mango's knight in shining polycarbonate might not be enough to make its presence felt...

We're very excited by the Nokia Lumia 800: it's one of the most elegant, pocket-friendly and unique Windows Phone 7.5 handsets on the market. The AMOLED display is extremely sharp with accurate and vivid colors that pop. The phone feels wonderful in hand and is very fast.
Pros:
- Elegant and pocketable design
- excellent display
Cons:
- Only available as an import for US buyers right now

Nokia Lumia 800 review
The Nokia Lumia 800 is by far one of the best looking Windows Phone 7 smartphones we've seen so far, but its allure is diluted somewhat by its fuzzy PenTile matrix display and an unlocked price that puts it in the same territory as the iPhone 4S.

Nokia Lumia 800 Review
The Nokia Lumia 800 is definitely Nokia's best handset for some time – it benefits from the inclusion of Windows Phone 7, but the mediocre snapper and lack of apps will be a letdown for many
